If Kindness was a Fire

A Poem on the kindness and fire

Imagine kindness as a fire

Our actions would be the flames that give humanity its desire

Without the pain and destruction that follows

When someone uses their anger,

That allows hatred to wonder,

in any or all directions

Hurting and destroying with bad intentions

Imagine kindness as a fire

Rising higher and higher

Using its flames to unite, create

Build, mend, heals, and integrate

Oh, the power of kindness

Blind and sightless

Giving love, understanding, and forgiveness

Some of the things humanity needs to show their goodness

Imagine Kindness as a fire

People, hearts, faces would shine with love

Giving thanks for all things from beyond and above

Imagine kindness as a fire

Raging, roaring, calling all races

Not caring the color of their faces

Uniting with one language

Black, white, red, or brown

All humans understand, the language of Fire!

Oh, if kindness was a Fire!
